It fixed the issue for me, Windows reinstall takes 30 min max to finish. If you find a solution, please let us know so we can advise future players on how to resolve the issue. If you need any more help or information, I'm here to help @Gri40.

Pushing those solutions onto users is simply excusing the sloppy work being done by EA on their new app. The only reasonable help would be pushing this issue up the ladder until it reaches a competent EA representative @danisoff

        A more easier solution is to install windows on a spare SSD if you got one. Using this method will save more time

        Install windows, drivers and let windows update. Also avoid bloatware like RGB software and all that other crap.
